Having enjoyed the duel, Neferpitou sits longingly in front of Kite's corpse and wishes to fight him again. Sitting under a tree with his head on their lap, they command the Ants in the nest to prepare a large freezing chamber to preserve their 'collection' and comment they are quite powerful. When the latter conjures his Crazy Slots, Neferpitou delights in the possibilities granted by Nen. Neferpitou ignores Killua as he drags an unconscious Gon away and focuses on Kite. With a single leap, they reach them and sever Kite's right arm.

They glimpse Kite, Gon, and Killua in the distance. Neferpitou leaves Peggy in charge and heads out to test their power. Ī victorious Neferpitou carrying Kite's head soon after their fight As Neferpitou thinks to themself that it must be tough to be ordinary and have to go to such lengths to acquire power, someone triggers their En. They organize a 'conferment ceremony' in which Squadron Leaders and Officers are to be struck by Rammot to open their Aura Nodes. Neferpitou then introduces themself and orders that Pokkle be fed to the Queen. The leaf withers away, revealing them as a Specialist. They have Rammot try Water Divination first, then they take the test as well. Neferpitou prods his brain with what appears to be knitting needles to extract information about Nen. They smell life hidden under a pile of bones, discovering Pokkle. Attracted by their conversation, Neferpitou enters the room, their aura alone stumping Rammot's ambition. Rammot, having acquired Nen after being attacked with it and beginning to fantasize about seizing power, suddenly feels Neferpitou's frightening aura. Neferpitou first appears when Rammot and Peggy look for the missing rare prey, Pokkle, in the Chimera Ant nest in NGL. Like Menthuthuyoupi, Neferpitou appeared to have no memories of their previous life, if they had one. They were personally named by the Queen, as were the other Royal Guards. Neferpitou was the first of the three Royal Guards born for the Chimera Ant King. However, they did have cordial relationships with some of the other Chimera Ants such as Peggy, Colt, and Rammot, and was not very strict with them despite being their superior. Pitou went so far as to call the Queen a 'thing', demonstrating little respect for their progenitress.

This loyalty immediately faded once he was born, and even though Pitou could have healed the Queen with Doctor Blythe, they simply said now that the King was born, the Queen was of no use anymore. While Pitou did initially support the Queen and was willing to help feed her, this was only done out of the desire to help the King be born. Even after their death, Pitou's Nen still remained their Terpsichora, even stronger than before, manipulated their corpse to attack Gon to protect the King.ĭespite their intense loyalty to the King, that loyalty did not extend whatsoever towards the Queen. When surrendering, they expressed their true affection for the king, understanding that Komugi helped Meruem become the individual he was now, and if Komugi was killed, Meruem would cease to be who he was now. They asked them for mercy with no consideration of fighting them by putting their hands upward-a signal that predators use to surrender-to show a lack of malice in order to fulfill the King's order to save Komugi. As a result, for the first time, Pitou surrendered to Gon and Killua. Pitou's loyalty and devotion to the King were so great, that during Komugi's operation to save her life from the injuries caused by Zeno's Dragon Dive, Pitou showed their vulnerability and fear since they had no means to defend themself from Gon's wrath for what they had done to Kite. Thus, among the three Royal Guards, Neferpitou was the only one that greatly prioritized Komugi's safety as opposed to Menthuthuyoupi and Shaiapouf's hatred towards Komugi, something Neferpitou was aware of which created distrust in regards to the matter, for making their king deviate from the path they envisioned for him. Unlike Menthuthuyoupi and Shaiapouf, Neferpitou did not seem to mind Meruem's later newfound interests in Komugi. Pitou also took their duty to protect the King seriously and was willing to sacrifice their chance to fight strong opponents to fulfill their duty. Despite their cheerful and playful manner though, Pitou had a cruel and terrifying personality as well. Pitou was a cat Chimera Ant, and like a cat, loved to play with their opponents like a cat would with their prey. Of the three Royal Guards, Pitou was the most curious and would get distracted easily and loved to play, and according to Shaiapouf, would get carried away when having fun. Neferpitou was very loyal to the King and would sacrifice themself for him. Pitou is torn between wanting to fight and protecting the King
